Well today is the 36th anniversary of the death of one of the greatest men to pick up the ax.
James Marshall Hendrix (born Johnny Allen Hendrix) was found dead in the basement apartment of the Samarkand Hotel, London, during the early morning hours. He spent the night with then girlfriend Monika Dannemann, and died in bed after drinking wine and taking nine Vesperax sleeping pills.
I will smoke a fat one for ya Jimi, and your music is dearly missed. Glad you put out what you did though, but you were beginning to take on a new sound there at the end. Absolutely unbelievable in concert, my personal favorite being at the Isle of Wight, excellent dvd.
So rock on, and light one up in honor of this innovative genius.
Another good dvd is Jethro Tull, and Emerson, Lake and Palmer at the Isle of Wight festival. Two of the best drum solos ever...
